I'm installing FreeBSD on an Ultra 5. I'm stuck at the "Creating the Root Fileystem" (http://people.freebsd.org/~bmah/relnotes/CURRENT/installation- sparc64.html). I've done the following: disklabel -w -r ad0 auto disklabel -e ad0 (I took the defaults, just to keep things simple) shutdown -r now boot -a -s Now I'm at a mountroot> prompt and I don't know what to enter here. I don't understand the instructions provided. "use a format like ufs:diskpartition, i.e. leave the slice specification out" tells me that "ufs:ad0" should work. Or perhaps "ufs:ad0e". Clues please? -- Dan Langille I'm looking for a computer job: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
